    Extractions: Ellen May Ngewthu is a soldier and leader of the Cassini Division, the elite defense force of the utopian Solar Union. Here in the twenty-fourth century, the forts of the Division, in orbit around Jupiter, are the front line in humanity's long standoff with the unknowable post-humans godlike beings descended from the men and women who transformed themselves with high technology centuries ago. The post-humans' capacities are unknown . . . but we know they disintegrated Ganymede, we know they punched a wormhole into Jovian space, and we know that the very surface of the solar system's largest planet has been altered by them. Worse, we know that they have been bombarding the inner solar system with powerful data viruses for generations.

    Extractions: Siis että maailma on tosiaan sekaisin. Britannia ja Lontookin ovat hajonneet erilaisiksi pikkuvaltioiksi ja ideologisiksi ryhmiksi - ja niitähän riittää. Fundamentalistien Beulah City, anarkistikapitalistinen Norlonto, militantit vihreät, vasemmistolainen ja tasavaltalaismielinen UTA ja jonkinlaiset kuningasmieliset. Ja niin edelleen ja niin edelleen. Eli Englanti on melkein kuin entinen Jugoslavia rauhanturvaoperaation jäljiltä. Maailmalla asiat ovat muuttuneet yhtä lailla. Kiertorataa hallitsee Avaruuden Puolustusvoimat ja sen lasersatelliitit sojottavat alas maapallolle. Yhdysvallat yrittää hallita muuta maailmaa YK:n myötävaikutuksella ja sen Stasis-yksikkö yrittää hidastaa tiettyjen tekniikoiden kehitystä tekoälyjen pelossa. Geneven sopimukseenkin on lisäilty uusia pykäliä (kuten sodassa sallitut terrorimenetelmät). Ainoa yhteinen seikka useille ryhmille näyttää olevan tekoälyjen pelko - ja varsinkin se, että ne saattavat korvata ihmiskunnan.

There are valid points on all sides, naturally, but your typical mail list is like a conference room with dozens of participants. It doesn't matter how intelligent or knowledgable the participants are, if they don't understand how to properly focus and direct a discussion then chaos results. The end result of this thread will be like a lot of others: nothing. By the time the thread ends there will have been very little coherent information that can be garnered from the thread that anyone could use to make any usable design choices or decisions. Are there solutions? Yes. Solutions range from simply maintaining a list of points and counterpoints all the way up to informal and formal facilitation and discussion techniques. Will any solution be used? Most likely not.

93. Review: Review: Cosmonaut Keep By Ken MacLeod

    Extractions: SF Reviews by Aaron M. Renn By Author By Title By Date Reviewed Conclusion: Recommended Perhaps it was inevitable that my ever escalating expectations for MacLeod's books would eventually get the best of me. I enjoyed Cosmonaut Keep, but not nearly to the extent of the Fall Revolution. Is it just expectations? Or is the "MacLeod style" just no longer as fresh to me? Or do I have real problems with the book? Probably a bit of all three, though MacLeod on an off day is still better than most people on their best. Cosmonaut Keep is the first book of a true trilogy. Unlike with the Fall Revolution series, these books don't stand alone - or at least this one didn't. We are treated to the expected MacLeod bifurcated time streams: the first a near future story of - what else? - intrigue among political factions revolving around first contact with an alien intelligence; the second in a further out future on a strange world where humans live side by side with other sentient species. It was hard to get going on this one, but once I did I was quickly sucked in and polished the book off in two sittings. Naturally the two threads converge by the end, and how a computer consultant on Earth and a marine biologist on a planet far away come to have anything to do with each other is what makes this book an adventure. First the good. MacLeod's writing is crisp and economical. At 336 pages this book is not exactly thin, but it sure isn't overbloated either. I love the way he writes dialogue. As a partial believer in numerous fringe political beliefs such as Georgism, I particularly enjoy his extrapolations of future societies under different political schemes and how he manages to pull this off without being preachy or, well, political about it.

94. Review: The Sky Road By Ken MacLeod

    Extractions: SF Reviews by Aaron M. Renn By Author By Title By Date Reviewed Conclusion: Highly Recommended What can I say, Ken MacLeod does it again. This is another great effort from him. Fans will not be disappointed. However, unlike with his other books, this one is much better if you know what has happened before. It sure helps if you've already read The Stone Canal. Don't buy this as your first MacLeod novel. At some time in the undisclosed future, humans are once again preparing to reach for the stars. At some time past, most modern computer technology had been swept away by someone called the Deliverer. And indeed many technologies and philosophies are viewed with the same level of acceptance as, say Satan worship. Meanwhile in our other thread, we get to follow the adventures of Myra Davidov after the death of a certain someone at the Khazakstan border in TSC. The only real complaint I have about this book is how the same people always seem be the key players and keep running into each other. I groaned when we found out C3P0 and R2D2 were in with Anakin and Obi-Wan from the beginning. Similarly, I cringed when I saw some of the folks Myra ran into. This is clearly a nitpick, which should show the depths to which I have to sink in order to find something negative to say about this otherwise excellent and well-written book. I'm always bothered when writers create something popular, then milk it with endless sequels. That's why I'm happy to report that I've heard that MacLeod is now working on Something Completely Different. I definitely think it's time to give this universe a rest while we still love it and want more, rather than when we've had enough.

    Extractions: Ken MacLeod is one of the most significant writers to emerge from British science fiction in the last decade. Lauded on both sides of the Atlantic, his novels explore political and utopian thought with intelligence, wit and a satiric eye. His first novel, The Star Fraction , was hailed as "a successful comic Trotskyist science fiction novel" and yet went on to win the Prometheus Award given by the Libertarian Futurist Society. This volume is the first attempt to examine MacLeod's work in depth, bringing together works by John H. Arnold, K. V. Bailey, Neal Baker, James Brown, Adam Frisch, Joan Gordon, Farah Mendlesohn, John Newsinger and Andy Wood and interviews with MacLeod by Andrew M. Butler and Andy Sawyer. It covers not only the Fall Revolution Quartet and the Engines of Light Trilogy, but also MacLeod's polemics and poetry. The essays discuss his politics and analyse the ideological history from which they emerge. They also explore his place in the history of science fiction, the rights of the posthuman and the ethics of genocide.

    Extractions: Subjects Titles Authors ... Latest Orbit 1998 Amazon A book review by Danny Yee At the beginning of the 24th century, the inner Solar System is dominated by the socialist Solar Union. Their front-line fighting force, the Cassini Division, defends against viral attacks from post-human Jovians and keeps careful watch on a wormhole. Ellen May Ngwethu, a member of the Division's Central Committee, travels to areas of Earth occupied by "non-cos", low-tech anarchists who still use such antiquated devices as money. Her goal is to find the physicist Malley, whose help is necessary to find a way through the wormhole. And after taking the losing side in a debate over whether to bomb the Jovians or to try to communicate with them, Ellen travels through the wormhole to ultra-capitalist New Mars. After a slower opening, there largely to link back to earlier books set in the same universe, The Cassini Division rattles along at a good pace. It is not particularly compelling as a novel, however, with no characters that really come to life. Ellen has centre-stage throughout but remains something of a cipher, her dominant feature her dedication to "the true knowledge" on which the Solar Union was founded ("self interest") and her hostility to non-humans, both rooted in her personal history. And none of the other characters gets much play at all. Suze, for example, is a sociologist who joins Ellen early on in the story and has as high a profile in it as anyone else, but she could still have been trivially edited out.
